Adios,

 

Pizza Bob

I'll cya there Bob, finally! Haven't been able to make any matches the past month so looking forward to this one...and Shongum is always one of my favorites of course!

I'll be there with my P226 and my son Nick will be shooting my CBOB.

I plan on going, just emailed Ron back.

Another choice same day is Lower Providence Rod & Gun Club, first match of the year, they are doing a classifier match with some field courses and others.

 

Might be an alternative. But will likely be at shongum.

Unfortunately I only just ordered my gear and the holster needed to be ordered (Lefty DOH, big surprise they didn't have it stocked), so I won't have it in time. I'm also taking the class with Col. Mort next month, so the April competition I'm sure I'll be there ready to see what this crazy stuff is really like.

What are you planning on shooting? I have lefty stuff for a 1911, and mags and pouches if you'd like to use them.

 

I'm in too.

Much appreciated, but I don't have a 1911. I'm planning on shooting my Beretta 92A1.

Well I am planning on taking the day off and heading over to the Lower Providence Rod & Gun Club, they are doing a minimum of a 5 stage classifier match.

Mmm 5 stage classifier made my ears perk, but I miss seeing the usuals at Shongum so I will be there.

 

I hope my M&P gear will arrive by then. I wanna try it out for USPSA so bad!

I'm gonna pm you tomo about this. I kinda want to go but my shooting partner in crime probably doesn't. Maybe we can carpool or something.

I am 50/50 on Lower Providence. If I can change my early morning saturday plans, I will be game to go. Wanted to check out the club.

 

Besides, got to get my sandbag C card in Production. =P If I can find a few more m&p 9mm mags.

Maks I have extra mags for my M&P, PM me if you'd like to borrow them, they're 10 rounders.

The weather forecast is unfavorable currently but maybe it will change. If Ron Guman cancels the match, it will be posted here so check this thread after 5:00PM Friday.

Just sent Ron an email. I'm in.

Wish I could get a job where I could be wrong 50% of the time and not get fired.

Nj judge or AG? Oh weatherman, nevermind.

If this match is on, is there any room for viewing the event progression? Meaning - can a newbie check it out without being in the way?

Yes, however you will definitely be kicking yourself for not shooting it. Disclaimer: This is assuming you are comfortable drawing from a holster and moving with a weapon.

Absolutely - just bring eyes & ears. WARNING: You will kick yourself for not participating. You gotta dive right in. Lots of friendly folk at Shongum and we were all new at one time. Come on down (or up - depending on where you are).

 

Adios,

 

Pizza Bob

 

ETA: Doh! You beat me to it j0n.

Just to pile on: You will kick yourself for not participating. I'm a noob myself and almost went as an observer for my first match and am super-glad I didn't.

Jump in! The water's fine.

Just go, you will be kicking yourself if you don't shoot it. Its like going to a strip club and not looking at the boobs. ?

 

Shongum is the place for a beginner.

Bob, I've sent the email and see ya on Sat.

Still might make this one, depending on the weather and where it's coming from or going to will decide if I go to New Providence or here I'd any.

Anyone know what up with this??? The Lower Providence PA match has already been canceled and re-scheduled for Sunday due to the weather.
